After meeting at the Washington Square Hotel, we’ll work our way towards Washington Square Park – the most haunted park in the city. You’ll hear about the infamous Hanging Tree and the events that gave it its name.
We’ll then head to the Brown Building, the site of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire, where the victims still linger to this day.
Making our way across the park and up 5th Avenue, we’ll pass the Church of the Ascension (haunted by artist John Lafarge) before stopping at 14 West 10th Street, reportedly the most haunted house in Manhattan. It’s home to 22 spirits and was the site of several murders.
Next, we’ll head into the heart of the West Village, passing Emma Lazarus's house and one of the most beautiful libraries in New York. We’ll see the Stonewall Inn and Sheridan Square, where the Stonewall Riots of 1969 took place, and stop at 12 Gay Street, a house that’s haunted by several spirits including former New York City mayor Jimmy Walker.
After crossing Christopher Street, we’ll visit Marie's Crisis and Chumley's, a historic West Village speakeasy.
